Everything ! The place is super quite, private, comfy, and full of everything you would need! The host was super kind and supportive, super available to resolve all your needs or questions!

It was absolutely gorgeous, really peaceful and super comfortable. The host was so lovely, and even left extra drinks and snacks for us, which was really sweet. The other people living nearby were also really friendly – one of them even lent us a bike when the one that came with the houseboat was too tall for me!
Nothing!

Tolle Ausstattung und eine großartige Gastgeberin
4.8
Karen is a super host! Her attention to detail and the love and care she puts into hosting is obvious, she simply makes you feel at home! The area is far from the center, hip and very authentic. So it's definitely worth discovering. The house itself is very charming.
The space is a bit smaller than the photos show, and the deck is a bit claustrophobic as the view on the water is blocked by other houseboats.
4.8
Cute houseboat apartment w sleeping loft. I love thé decor and the owner is super friendly and accessible. The bikes we could use were very nice and looked newer. Unfortunately we did not get a chance to use them.
The loft could be tricky to get up to if someone has limited mobility or fear of heights. The place could use a good high dusting.
4.8
Very very nice place decorated with heart and soul. Karen explaind us everything, wished us warm welcome, took a photo for collection.
Boathouse is real boathouse near NDSM (north Amsterdam): 10 min by foot/3 by bike and then free ferry to Amsterdam central.
Very clean. Tea, cookies, muesli for guests.
To borrow: bikes (very practical), books (city guides, novelsin different languages), umbrellas (we needed it), shoping bag.
Bed is upstairs so You have to be careful. Boathouse have terrace with view at other boathouses, swans, ducks, if you’re Lucky.
If You want You can take bike ride to Buiksloterweg (ferry station-max 10 min) and then cross by ferry to Amsterdam central.
The nearest grocery is at NDSM (ferry station). Thank You Karen :) Hope to be back soon

Unique Amstardam experience of sleeping on the houseboat with „Balinese vibes“. Place has been created with love and absolute care about every single detail. Location is great, close to industrial part of North Amsterdam with nice venues and restaurants, which are not so crowded as historical touristic city center. Totally recommend for solo traveler or couples.
4.8
The property was quiet and relaxing while being close enough to easily access anything you may want to do!
The ladder to the loft was steep but I live in a one-story so I am not used to stairs first thing in the morning.
4.8
The boat is lovely and so beautifully decorated that it literally takes your breath away. The host was super nice, I mean super super nice, from start to finish. Fantastic Dutch experience.
It is not that we did not love it because it comes as a package of sorts when you are renting a houseboat, but the boat's neighborhood is not particularly beautiful. Still, it is very quiet and calm.
4.8
The owner of the apartment has incredible attention and and has made us feel at home from minute 1. We have been great in the apartment, it is super cozy, a very quiet area and only 10 minutes from the central station. 100% recommendable. ITS FANTASTIC!!!
4.8
The place is great! Since we were traveling in the spring, it was a great place to hide and take a break from all the masses of tourists in the city center. The studio had everything we needed (starting from cofee machine, cozy couch and ending with mini library) and was quiet and cozy. Love all the details that the hostess had thought about. It was cute to read all the little messages and clues left all over the studio in case we dont know how to operate something. One of the biggest impressions was left by the book, that the hostess had written with all kind of suggestons what there is to see an do on that side of river.
At first it was a little bit intimidating to think how we will be able to commute to the accomodation, however in the end there was no need to worry. The transportation in Amsterdam is great and it took no time to get from the center to the accomodations :)
4.8
The location was in the hip North of Amsterdam which was a great place to stay and reached by a regular free ferry from the Central Station. There were lots of nice cafes and restaurants nearby and an excellent bakery Brood. Karen our host was very friendly and helpful and took some nice photos of us which she printed and gave us on the last day. The houseboat had some lovely Indonesian wooden screens and doors and the bed was very comfortable. Overall we had a great stay at the houseboat.
We liked everything. Maybe should mention the ladder to the bedroom is steep and the ceiling of the bedroom very low. It wasn’t a problem for us at all but might be for someone very tall or not very agile.

We had an amazing time in the Houseboat studio ! The house is really beautiful and functional.
Also, thank you so much for all the special care during our trip !

Lovely, cosy property. Karen is warm and welcoming and makes sure you know all about the hidden gems of the property as well as the local area. Perfect for a quiet getaway and a great base to explore Amsterdam and the Noord. Thank you Karen for a lovely stay.
The ladder to the sleeping area could be tricky for some guests.
4.8
Karen's place is amazing, it's very comfortable and cozy. It's a great quiet and relaxing base for exploring Amsterdam. The bikes are a big plus for exploring the city and the noord (which is a cool area). Karen is friendly and she takes care of every detail for making your stay as good as possible. Would stay again for sure!
4.8
Karen was so kind & generous. Everything was perfectly ready and she greeted us with a big smile and a tour of the place.
She was kind enough to leave all the best things for your first day and morning!
Coffee, teas, etc various snacks, even 2 eggs for the cutest hard boil egg cooker!
Even left a few Heinekens for us! 2 cokes!
Was our first trip to Amsterdam and a very special one thanks to our accommodations.
Thank you!
4.8
Lovely host who looked after us very well. Studio was extremely clean and tidy - and we were kept warm in the winter with good heating. Bikes were available for use and a free ferry near by that goes to the city centre very regularly. There is several nice restaurants within 10 minute walk as well as a bakery and supermarket.

Karen is a wonderful host… we loved our stay in Amsterdam.

Very aesthetic, Karen was lovely. Well furnished with TV, coffee maker, kettle, milk etc. Nice couples retreat.
Very little, lovely place, but also priced keenly.
If being heavily pedantic, would benefit from slightly brighter lights downstairs.

Wow! Incredibly friendly owner made us feel truly welcome. I cannot imagine better experience. The place is truly unique and decorated with love. Such a cosy little place 😍
Nothing we didn't know when we were booking it.

Master Host. Karen is the very definition of Master Host. She is absolutely adorable and perfect. She personally checked us in, she fed us with so much information about the surroundings and how to move around. We felt really pampered with the small treats, coffee. We had always wanted to have a "boat house" experience in Amsterdam but we really fell in love with it all. The houseboat is super well located in the NDSM, not far from the (free) ferry, and we biked a lot! The neighborhood is very typical and peaceful, and as days go by you start discovering wonderful gardens and parks in the area. We had groups of swam and duck to say "good morning" to while we had breakfast. The space is flawless, from decoration to cleanness, everything is so well taken care of in all details. WE WILL BE BACK for sure! Spending day/evening in busy Amsterdam (Center and South) and coming to the houseboat on the North to spend a serene, restoring night sleep... it really gave us the perfect balance and the best experience.
We loved everything. Free bikes for the whole day, included in the stay... made it all even more remarkable.

Great accommodation! Nice neighborhood and very kind host.

What a find this was. Karen is hands down the best host I have ever come across and this property is unique to say the least. She continued to surprise us throughout our stay and even offered us her boat to take to the canal. I will fondly remember having breakfast on the boat deck, the sounds of birds and Karen’s warmth. Won’t be able to stay anywhere else in Amsterdam this experience. I should add, my partner struggles to sleep in new places and he slept like a baby at Karen’s.
Nothing to not like. Be mindful that the sleeping area is up a sturdy ladder but other than that I have nothing to point out.
4.8
amazing furniture, extraordinary location (this part of Amsterdam is awesome hipster and full of freedom) and hospitality of Karen. Havent experience such hospitality 😌
there is nothing I didnt like 😌

This is such a unique property and great to just Zen out. 10 minutes from the DSM with loads of great restaurants, cafes and ferry access to Central Station. Karen is a wonderful hostess, provides a plentiful and nutritious breakfast and snacks. Her parting gift to us was such a kind thought. We cannot wait to return in the future.
Nothing directly associated with the property but the weather was awful.
4.8
Amazing accomodation, quiet location with quirky interesting decor. Everything you'd get from a standard hotel plus MUCH more..it has character and charm, so many amenities, breakfast supplys, netflix, and of course the terrace. Karen the host has thought of everything.
Its in North Amsterdam but it so easy to get to Amsterdam Central...free ferry is a 10 min walk. (And you can use the bikes provided). Karen made us feel so welcome, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Highly recommended.
4.8
CASA KAREN is a lovely cosy and quirky houseboat with real character. It is in a very quiet neighbourhood which was lovely after the intensity of Central Amsterdam - still only a short ferry ride from centraal train station.
The boat is really comfortable and has a lovely vibe. The bed is super comfortable and the shower is brilliant. Hot and powerful! We really enjoyed sitting outside and having breakfast at the table whilst watching a mother coot with her chicks.
Amsterdam Noord is a really interesting area. Brilliant for cycling around and looking at all the street art and old shipbuilding warehouses.
Karen is such a generous host and very helpful with lots of info about Amsterdam and where to go. The bikes are a brilliant bonus and the boat has lovely treats and gorgeous coffee available.
If you're not very agile, it is important to know that the bed is up a (very sturdy) ladder.
4.8
First of all - Karen is the Goddess of coziness and care! She provides every Detail in this authentic accommodation with love.
The place is small very comfy, beautifully designed, with everything one needs on a daily basis.
Thank you so much!
